Projector Overview
This section describes the features of the projector, and explains the functions of the projector and 
remote controller keys.
XJ-A130/XJ-A135/XJ-A140/XJ-A145/XJ-A230/XJ-A235/XJ-A240/XJ-A245
A laser and LED hybrid light source provides high brightness of 2,000 to 2,500 lumens along with 
low power consumption and low heat generation.
Slim and compact:
A4 file size and approximately 43mm slim. Compact enough to install or use just about anywhere.
HDMI video/audio input:
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) input support enables direct connectivity with today’s 
HDMI enabled notebook PCs, high-definition video devices (BD, HD DVD, DVD players, etc.), 
games, and other image projection and audio output devices.
Connection requires a commercially available HDMI cable.
Wide projection range:
A wide angle 2X zoom allows projection even when projector-to-screen distance is severely limited. 
When using a projection size of 60 inches, projection can be performed from a distance of 
1.4 meters (XJ-A230/XJ-A235/XJ-A240/XJ-A245) or 1.7 meters (XJ-A130/XJ-A135/XJ-A140/
XJ-A145).
A selection of possible input sources:
Computer RGB, composite video, component video (Y·Cb·Cr/Y·Pb·Pr), and HDMI video/audio are 
all supported as input sources.
Pointer:
The remote controller can be used to select one of a variety of different pointers for use during 
projection.
Direct Power On:
The projector can be configured to turn on automatically and start projecting as soon as it is 
plugged into a power outlet.
XJ-A230/XJ-A235/XJ-A240/XJ-A245
WXGA Resolution:
The XJ-A230/XJ-A235/XJ-A240/XJ-A245 models support WXGA (1280 × 800) resolution for optimal 
viewing of content formatted for today’s widescreen displays. This makes it perfect for projecting 
images from widescreen notebook PCs and HD video input sources.

XJ-A135/XJ-A145/XJ-A235/XJ-A245
Projection of Data from USB Memory or a Memory Card without a Computer:
USB memory or a memory card (using a commercially available USB card reader) can be connected 
directly to the projector’s USB port. The projector comes with special software for converting 
PowerPoint presentation data to a format that can be stored to USB memory or a memory card and 
projected without using a computer. Images and movies also can be projected directly from USB 
memory or a memory card.
Multi Projection Camera (YC-400, YC-430) Connection:
A CASIO Multi Projection Camera can be connected directly to the projector’s USB port for fine 
resolution projection of documents and other images. Document camera capabilities allow 
projection of data without going through a computer.
Graphic Scientific Function Calculator Connection:
Certain CASIO graphic scientific calculator models can be connected directly to the projector’s 
USB port for projection of the calculator screen contents.
Projection of Computer Screen Contents via Wireless LAN:
The projector comes with a wireless LAN adapter. After a wireless LAN connection is established, 
the contents of the computer screen can be sent to the projector for projection.

Operations in this manual are presented based on the remote controller that comes with the projector. 
Major operation keys are also provided on the projector unit, so the most of the same procedures can 
also be performed directly on the projector.
Remote Controller Keys
The remote controller does not come with batteries loaded. You need to load the two supplied 
batteries before use.
Important!To avoid running down the batteries, store the remote control unit so its keys are not pressed 
inadvertently.

Selecting the Color Mode
You can select from among four different color mode settings to optimize the projected image in 
accordance with image contents and projection conditions.
Important!The color mode cannot be selected while “Off” is selected for the Eco Mode (page 15).
To change the color mode
1.Press the [COLOR MODE] key.
This displays the color mode selection window. The currently selected color mode is the one 
whose button is selected (filled in).
2.Use the [] and [] keys to move the highlighting to the color mode you want to 
select, and then press the [ENTER] key.
This will select the button next to the highlighted color mode name.
For details on what each color mode does, see “Color Mode” under “Image Adjustment 1 
Main Menu” on page 27.
3.To hide the window, press the [ESC] key.
Zooming an Image
1.Press the [D-ZOOM +] key.
This will enlarge the center of the projected image one step.
2.To zoom in on the center of the projected image more, press the [D-ZOOM +] 
key again. To zoom out, press the [D-ZOOM –] key.
Each press of [D-ZOOM +] zooms in (increases the zoom factor), while [D-ZOOM –] zooms 
out. Holding down either key continuously scrolls the zoom factor.
3.While an image is zoomed, use the [], [], [], and [] keys to scroll the view 
to other parts of the image.
4.To exit the zoom operation, press the [ESC] key.
